Concrete spalling sensitivity versus microstructure: Preliminary results on the effect of polypropylene fibers

The phisyco-mechanical processes triggering concrete explosive spalling are related to the heat-induced micro- and meso-structural changes. To have new information on concrete properties at the microstructural level, as well as on how concrete spalling sensitivity is affected by polypropylene and st...
